Duterte to decide on China’s proposal to ban online gambling

Malacañang will leave it to President Rodrigo Duterte to decide whether he would heed China’s suggestion to ban all online gambling in the Philippines.

“We will have to ask the President on his policy on this. Hindi natin alam kung may possibility or walang possibility (We don’t know if there is a possibility for a total ban or not), we will have to ask the President,” Presidential Spokesman Salvador Panelo said in a phone interview with reporters on Wednesday.
